2022 Election Equipment Audit Press Release

Village of Fremont Completes Post-Election Audit

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Dec. 12, 2022                                              FOR MORE INFORMATION, CONTACT:                                                                                                                          Megan Wunderlich-Clerk/Treasurer                                                                                                                                      [email protected]

 

Waupaca County, Village of Fremont Wis. – Residents in the Village of Fremont can be confident that votes were counted accurately in the Nov. 8, 2022 election following the completion of a post-election audit of voting equipment used in the Village of Fremont on Nov. 8. 

 

On November 30, 2022 election workers completed an audit of voting equipment in Wards 1-2 in the Village of Fremont, which was randomly selected for audit by the Wisconsin Elections Commission during an event open to the public. The audit provides an additional way to ensure that voting machines worked properly, and that the election was conducted accurately.

 

Wisconsin statutes require a post-election audit of voting systems used in Wisconsin after each General Election. During the post-election audit, election officials check to make sure the vote totals compiled by the voting equipment on Election Night are accurate. During this process, elections workers conduct an independent hand count of paper ballots and tally the results of the selected contests. The final hand-count tally total is compared to the election night voting system results.

 

Audit materials are submitted to the WEC for review. The WEC analyzes the audit results and investigates any discrepancies and can request a voting machine vendor investigate and provide explanation for any unexplained discrepancies. Once this work is complete, WEC staff will prepare a public report for review by the six Commissioners during the Feb. 2, 2023 Commission meeting.

 

Post-election audits, conducted in a record 10% of reporting units across Wisconsin for the November 2022 election, serve as a triple check on the election results. While not every reporting unit or municipality is selected for post-election audit, state election officials ensured that the 2022 sample of 358 reporting units includes at least one reporting unit per county, and at least five reporting units for each type of equipment used.

 

Discrepancies in the vote totals are infrequently reported, and if they are, they are typically due to human error, which election officials then work to prevent by developing new training protocols.

 

In a separate pre-election voting equipment audit that occurs before every election and in every municipality, voting machine programming is verified by feeding a set of pre-marked ballots into each machine and reviewing the results tape that is generated. An errorless count is required at the conclusion of the testing.

 

Additionally, election officials at the county and state level review state election results for any discrepancies before they are certified by the chair of the WEC.
